All Day,All Night..."Shock-A-Locka" 
that track is SOOOOO Purple Rain..it's sick.should've made the cut. my guess is that it would have been a 2-lp set. Prince giving the song to J.J. for her album was a good choice..she captured the vocal vibe it called for. 
so..which prince song(s) (any era, official and otherwise), would you have lead vocals on? [Edited 2/22/10 19:31pm] | |

"Nasty Girl"
"Nothing Compares 2 U" "The Glamorous Life" | |

Probably "The Glamorous Life" as Ernest said, but it was definitely meant 4 Sheila 2 rock out on. "All Day, All Night" is a killer track, & definitely should've stayed a Revolution track. If "Around The World In A Day" could've been a double LP, I would have added it and all of the extended dance mixes of the singles, PLUS the B-Sides & "A Love Bizarre"...
It would've looked something like this if it was a 4 sided double LP like back in a day: Side 1: AROUND THE WORLD IN A DAY PAISLEY PARK CONDITION OF THE HEART RASPBERRY BERET (extended version) Side 2: TAMBOURINE SHE'S ALWAYS IN MY HAIR (12 inch) GIRL (12 inch) ALL DAY, ALL NIGHT Side 3: AMERICA (extended version) THE LADDER Side 4: POP LIFE (fresh dance mix) TEMPTATION A LOVE BIZARRE (extended) Probably wouldn't of worked, but who knows...The original album is already one of my favorites, but that tracklisting would've been crazy! Sorry I went off track.  Exiles of the Nation
"Liquidation", the NEW 18th LP. Available everywhere now. https://youtube.com/chann...-ieACvEQMA | |

Sheila worked it, but I wonder how well it would have done originally as an Apollonia 6 track. Same with any other of those songs meant for A6 originally. Of course, at this point, we can't imagine anyone but Sheila singing it. | |

THE LADDER Side 4: POP LIFE (fresh dance mix) TEMPTATION A LOVE BIZARRE (extended) Probably wouldn't of worked, but who knows...The original album is already one of my favorites, but that tracklisting would've been crazy! Sorry I went off track. it's cool.  [Edited 2/22/10 21:37pm] | |

It's sad 2 know that the Apollonia 6 album could have been another great side-project. | |

Then realised I'd put Vibrator and Sugar Walls. Not that I wouldn't do them justice, obviously... Erik blah blah blah |

prince could release an entire "alternate" hits collection
where he'd sing lead on all those classic tracks he gave to other artists. there are so many... think of all the cool "the time" songs and a lot of the brilliant stuff he gave to sheila, jill, mavis, martika, sheena, etc etc. and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

G-Spot...I love his version, very funky with the screams and rhythm guitar...and I think he says, "Princeo, blow your horn, don't give me none that trash, just give me some of that...POPCORN...O Lawd". If so, 2 funky! | |

that's my song right there! i think he said "crazy-o"( as in his shout out to Maceo Parker who might have been on the track?)
the rehersal versions are pretty funky too. | |

Oh well I'll stick with my choices, it'd be funny if nothing else. Erik That's what I took it to mean. Because that's what it says. Who the fuck wants to sing a Prince song on their own? It'd be sacrilege, and unnecessary. I made my choices because I want to hear Prince sing "I need seven inches or more". | |

That's what it sounds like to me...I could be wrong, Prince got that line from James Brown song called "Popcorn"... | |

I like JJ's version, but I absolutely prefer Prince's version, so funky, so sexy..

He actually calls out for 'Maceo', as James Brown always used to do. At least, that's what it always sounded like to me. >> |

I guess we will all know, once it is "offically" released, but until then...that's my jam!  | |
